As the first iteration of protocells, monocells are primitive, digital, artificial life forms based on lattice structures. Guided by artificial selection, they evolved rigid, springy, naked skeletons with no membranes or differentiation in material and resemble organic Radiolarians living in Earth’s oceans. Monocells tend to cycle through different configurations in their evolutionary path, some stable, some in perpetual motion. Undiscovered earlier versions of protocells probably had no way of interacting with the graphics pipeline and, if at all, existed as simple graph data structures. Monocells were the first protocells which evolved monochrome display through ordered dithering.
I Follow is an ongoing series of computer generated flip books created by Matthias Dörfelt where the creature, landscape and animation are randomly generated, using Matthias’ hand drawn marks.
Created by Princemio in collaboration with onformative, the Pathfinder project was created with aim to contribute to the creative processes of choreographic development.
Created by Sam Conran at the RCA/Design Interactions, the Kabbalistic Synthesizer is a is a musical synthesiser that operates using waveforms generated by the Earths magnetic field, noise via magnetic storms of Jupiter and keyboard via cosmic rays.
